Yoosha, ANSI is 1 byte, UTF-8 has variable character size depending on the char. It inherits the ASCII 0 - 256 characters, which like with ASCII only take up 1 byte per char up to a certain range.
CJK chars (Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc.) take multiple bytes to represent their symbols, glyphs and characters.
